This study describes a case of cyclic thrombocytopenia where a novel MPL gene mutation may contribute to the disease, with gene expression changes in platelet and neutrophil genes preceding platelet count fluctuations.

The authors reported a possible association between the use of etanercept and the development of trichorrhexis nodosa, a hair shaft disorder, in a patient without apparent external causes.

In a mouse model of peripheral vascular disease, this study found that recombinant thymosin β4 treatment increased expression levels of certain proteins, promoting angiogenesis.

This study found that an aqueous extract of Bacopa procumbens improved motor function and preserved neuronal structure in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease, suggesting its neuroprotective potential.

In this case study, an 18-year-old woman's triangular alopecic patch diagnosed as temporal triangular alopecia was considered non-progressive and had no impact on her quality of life, so no treatment was initiated.

This study highlights that variations in clinical outcome reporting can undermine the validation of NTCP models for RIA, stressing the need for a standardized and objective scoring system.

This report highlights a preterm newborn with hair-thread tourniquet syndrome affecting multiple toes, emphasizing the importance of early identification and removal to prevent severe complications.

This study found that METTL1 is upregulated in papillary thyroid cancer tissues and promotes cancer cell proliferation and metastasis through its tRNA methyltransferase activity.

Hydroxychloroquine effectively treated twenty-nail dystrophy in a patient with alopecia areata.

HGF combined with ADA is highly accurate for diagnosing tuberculous pleural effusion, especially in younger females.

This study reviews modern treatment techniques for large, life-threatening pulmonary emboli and concludes that pulmonary artery thrombectomy is a safe and effective method, though it remains underutilized. Results are not reported in the abstract.

This study identified PTEN as a key regulator in non-healing venous leg ulcers, suppressing immune responses and lymphangiogenesis, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target for promoting VLU healing.

Hair transplantation effectively treated a bald patch in an 18-year-old woman with Temporal Triangular Alopecia.

This case report found that a patient with cutaneous polyarteritis nodosa experienced rare and severe manifestations, including digital gangrene and a breast ulcer, requiring aggressive treatment and resulting in below-knee amputation.

This meta-analysis found that the rs2476601 SNP of the PTPN22 gene is significantly associated with reduced susceptibility to alopecia areata, with carriers of the C-allele and CC-genotype having a lower risk.

In this case study, researchers detailed two Saudi cases of the ultra-rare Trichohepatoneurodevelopmental syndrome, identifying pathogenic variants in the CCDC47 gene and reinforcing a strong gene-disease association, which helps clarify the disorder's clinical features and genetic mutations.

This article presents a case of Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome with limb hypertrophy, port-wine stains, angiokeratoma, and venous varicosities, but reports no new findings beyond this case description.

This review revisits hair-thread tourniquet syndrome, highlighting the importance of prompt diagnosis and treatment by removing the constricting hair or similar substance to prevent damage to affected body parts, aiming to raise healthcare professionals' awareness for better prevention and management.

This case study highlights the need for individualized assessment and discussion for athletes with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura due to the lack of definitive guidelines on safe participation in contact sports, noting a low bleeding risk when platelet counts are above 50,000.

This case report describes a man with trichorrhexis nodosa of the beard, who experienced symptomatic improvement after being advised to shave and avoid brushing, confirming the diagnosis.

In this study, Trapa bispinosa Roxb. pericarp extract demonstrated inhibitory effects on 5α-reductase activity both in vitro using LNCaP cells and in vivo in a mouse model of benign prostatic hyperplasia, suggesting its potential role in managing the condition.

This study found that adults with β-thalassemia major had a significantly higher prevalence of skin, hair, and nail disorders compared to healthy controls, influenced by factors like age, gender, and ferritin levels.

In this follow-up of three siblings with ATP6AP1 deficiency, the researchers observed progression to total hearing loss, hair loss, and proteinuria.

This study found a severe MBTPS2 gene mutation in a Japanese IFAP syndrome patient, suggesting other factors may influence the syndrome's clinical features compared to previously studied patients.

This study found that plasma cardiac troponin I levels were highest in subjects with alopecia areata, potentially indicating increased heart remodeling and a need for close cardiovascular monitoring in these individuals.

This study reported a series of eight children with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets in Tunisia, identifying both common and novel mutations in the vitamin D receptor gene, and noting significant improvement with intravenous calcium treatment in most patients.

This study found that mutations in the TMPRSS6 gene affect the ability of matriptase-2 to inhibit hepcidin, which may impact the molecular pathogenesis of iron-refractory iron-deficiency anemia.

This study used a probabilistic Boolean network model to explore hair follicle cell fate regulation and predicted that varying TGF-β levels, in coordination with BMP and TNF, can influence either apoptosis or cell proliferation during different follicle growth stages.

In this study, evidence that trichodysplasia spinulosa-associated polyomavirus targets follicular keratinocytes was observed in a pediatric case, suggesting these cells as the primary viral target.
